Waiting on approval

[msjessy323 184]

Okay everyone my insurance company received my paperwork which was confirmed to me today and I'm just waiting for the phone call saying its been approved. I feel positive and I'm remaining prayerful that it will. So keep me in prayer that it will be a yay and not a nay. I have Empire Blue Cross Blue Shield NY

Yes I'm trying to find the answer to my question? I have a BMI of 41 my insurance only covers BMI of 40 or more. I have to go on six month diet what if I lose weight that drops me below 40 BMI will my insurance not cover?

Unless you have co morbities they should cover . My BMI is 35 but I have high blood pressure, coronary heart / artery disease abd and the beginning level of diabetes. When I started my journey in July I was between 245 - 250 and I'm down to 228. My goal is to get between 150 - 160 which was the weight I was after I had my daughter 28 years ago . I'm 51 and will be 52 in March.

I'm sorry I'm confused. What's co morbities? I have no health issues as if yet. My insurance wouldn't tell me wether they would cover if my BMI went below 40 during the diet of six months phase.
